Leanback VerticalGridView height: wrap_content

Question

I have a VerticalGridView in which i plan to use multiple VerticalGridViews. Wrap_Content does nothing for a VerticalGridView if its set on it's height, The GridLayoutManager simply ignores it if the view is in a normal view, and it does match_parent it seems. If it is in another Vertical Scrolling view the height is 0. I cannot override the GridLayoutManager without duplicating the entire leanback library.

How can I achieve wrap_content for it?

- Change it's layout manager from `leanback.widget.GridLayoutManager` to `recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager`: - in xml, set android:layout_height="wrap_content" `verticalGridView.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(context, VerticalGridView.VERTICAL, false)` — dardan.g, Jun 23 '22 at 13:34

setColumnWidth method can be used to achieve it:

gridView.setColumnWidth (ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT)

In my case I extend VerticalGridView and call this method in constructor to make WRAP_CONTENT default behavior

How can it work ? It applies to the width, not the height. In my case, unfortunately your solution did not work :( – Mackovich Feb 18 '22 at 17:35
